If you think the courts, FRO and everyone else is wrong, you are right then.

The system is designed to help the 90% of people who want to either work with it or who accept it for being less than perfect but still pretty good. The other 10% I believe wouldn't be happy even if things went exactly how they wanted them too.

If a legal system helps the majority of people, then it's working the way democracy intended it to work. If it doesn't suit you, either you need to change or continue to try to change it yourself but I'll tell you right now you won't change it yourself and you'll lose valuable time and memories with your kids in attempting to do it.
How old are you? Are you married? Do you have children?

It's not relevant to whether I'm married, have kids or how old I am.

I will answer only to say I'm over 18 and younger than 50 and old enough to know how the World works.

Whether I have kids or not, all I can say is that I would take care of them no matter what and nothing would change that.

If I was married or not, all I can say is that I loved my significant other at one point in time and fulfill my obligations both as a man and a husband.

I look like Dr. Phil in actuality, therefore, I'm quite tall (6'4"), approx. 240 lbs and have no hair left on my head.

I save a lot on haircuts, styling products and time getting myself ready

It's totally relevant, you see the vast majority of people in here have children and have ex spouses. If by some chance you do not have children, how can you pretend to know what I (we) are going through or what we've done to struggle through the system. Until you've gone through it, you can not possible understand.

As far as your life experiences, and by your answer I would assume you have not gone through this life experience, and therefore should mind your comments. I would not wish what I've and I can imagine others that have gone and going through with their ex's, or the system out there on anyone. This site is for the purpose of or what I understand it to be anyway, to support one another, share our experiences and hopefully be educated by them.

Now I can not speak for others in here, but I will tell you this, when you start insulting my ability to father my children or me as a father, you're crossing the line. This tells me that you are either a young one with very little life experience, that has a little education working for the government in a job that right or wrong sucks parents dry of dignity and hope and finances, or you're and older person that has old values that has been brain washed into thinking that the system is great, and it us deadbeat dads that are the problem. Either way, to me, you have a nothing to offer that I could perceive as valuable, as in my opinion your views are tainted. Though I am sure that others in her will welcome your input, I will obstain.

Oh, and BTW, here is another one of your satified customers of the great FRO system:

FRO Bank garnishment~ Your not going to believe this.
Some of you are aware of my issues with FRO. They garnished my ex's bank account last month and I have been given conflicting information regarding what happens next.

This morning I was informed that the bank responded to FRO that they do not have a customer by his name, and therefore there was no account to garnish. This made no sense to me and on pressing further it was discovered they garnished the wrong bank. Despite me providing them with the bank name, transit number, the bank's address including postal code, the account number, and names on the account, they sent the garnishment to the wrong bank. A bank he has never used, a bank I have never used. As a matter of fact, I do not know anyone who uses the bank they tried to garnish.

Needless to say, I am completely fed up. They did not even attempt to reach me to confirm with me the information I provided them with. Had I not called to find out why the new support deduction order had not been updated in my file yet (they have had it since May 21st), no one would have known they garnished the wrong bank.

Nice eh. I asked to speak to my caseworker....but no...... I was told to call back in 2 days instead.

Seriously.


Did I mention, leafs suck

Happens. Hopefully, the delay is kept to a minimum.

It is not just the dads that get screwed by FRO...women do too.

My personal experience? Court-ordered child support of 110.00 per month. Non-payment from the start. 6 years later, FRO tell me their hands are tied, nothing they can do. Dad moved.

Well...within 48 hrs of hearing this, I not only knew where my ex was, but had contacted police to execute the warrant of committal on my file. "sorry, it is low priority, we only execute if he is involved in a police matter" FRO says, "we cannot do anything"... Go figure...
